The invective of a scientist who feels like a voice in the wilderness.

"Every doctrinal interference poses a risk to democracy. Is it possible to tolerate religious classes in schools? Is it possible to tolerate demonstrations of untrammelled liberalism that poison the market? Is it possible to tolerate the fact that political power is occupied by leaders of a party who are incompetent? Have we not perhaps arrived at a mediatic production of consensus that preserves ignorance and a lack of culture as guarantees of subordination? Does or does not the State have the obligation to promote free scientific research? It would be sufficient to study just a little history to understand the capacity for positive innovation research has had in the world of contemporary science and to understand how the level of wellbeing that distinguishes developed countries depends on their being scientifically active. If a lot of people do not even notice that they belong to a system in which water is taken from a tap and not from a well, light is obtained at the flick of a switch, and headaches disappear with a pill, then it will be necessary to review what the conscience of the world has become in this part of the planet."
